The mobility assistant that enhances your experiences.

What is Lazzus?

Navigate the city and explore your surroundings independently

Lazzus is an assistant that accompanies blind and visually impaired people as they move around, creating an auditory field of vision.

It points out useful things around you, such as pedestrian crossings, street intersections, stairs and businesses, helping you to get around safely and explore your surroundings more intuitively.

It also guides you to places you never thought you’d be able to go without someone’s help.

What sets Lazzus apart?

Lazzus uses two complementary and extremely powerful data sources: Google Places (the most up-to-date source in the market) and Open Street Map, which means the information it provides is more accurate and you can discover more places of interest.

It searches a 100-metre radius, which helps you explore because it only highlights information on things that are near you at any given time.

Lazzus has been tested and approved by the CIDAT, a leading centre for accessibility and support products for the blind, which is run by ONCE, Spain’s association for blind people.

It received the 2015 Vodafone Foundation "Mobile for Good" Award for Innovation in Communication."

It was also recognised with the 2015 Google Startup Award for mobile innovation.
